FROM; Phil Batchelor, County Administrator Costa
DATE: April 28, 1992 19 County
SUBJECT: Participation in 1992 Summer Youth Employment and Training Program
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the County Administrator to execute an agreement between the County and
the Contra Costa. County Office of Education, under the terms of which 1992 Summer
Youth Employment and Training Program (SYETP) participants will be placed in
various County departments to receive work experience during the period June 15,
1992 through August 21, 1992, contingent upon execution of a master 1992 SYETP
contract between the Contra Costa County Private Industry Council (County
Department) and the Contra Costa County Office of Education for provision of the
1992 SYETP.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The placement of 1992 SYETP participants in various County departments will "result
in no additional personnel costs to the'County, and the additional work provided by
the participants should be of more value than the cost of supervision, work tools,
and other costs necessary to support the additional workers.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
SYETP provides needed job-related training and income for low income youth of the
County, while at the same time providing needed services which cannot be met by
existing County staff.
Each year the federal government provides funds to the County to conduct youth
employment and training programs, and regularly the Board has authorized
departments to participate in the program as they so choose. The program has
proven to be beneficial to both the departments and the youth who participate.
The recommended action will authorize department heads to enter into agreements with
representatives of the Contra Costa County Office of Education to place youth in
work employment and training slots within various departments determined by the
department head.
Authorizing the County Administrator to execute the agreement will expedite the
process. the program is scheduled to begin on June 15, 1992.
CONSEQUENCES OR NEGATIVE ACTION
The consequence of negative action would be to deny County departments of needed
human resources and many low income youth a meaningful job-related training
experience.
